Jessica & Patrick‘s Wedding at Anthony’s Ocean View in New Haven, CT embodied the culmination of their vision, guided by these three insightful tips that helped them select a venue resonating perfectly with their style and dreams for their special day.
1. Follow Your Vibes: Close your eyes and imagine the feels. Do you see yourselves in a rustic barn, toes in the sand at a beach, or surrounded by city lights? Let your gut guide you. Your venue should be a vibe-match made in heaven.
2. Budget Smudget – Sort Of: Budget talks – not the most romantic, but oh-so-necessary. Set a range, but don’t let it rain on your venue parade. Get creative! Sometimes, a venue that includes more perks upfront can be a budget-friendly powerhouse.
3. Picture Your Pics: Think Instagram-worthy. Consider the backdrop for your photos. A venue with killer scenery is like an instant filter for your pictures. It’s not just a venue; it’s a frame for your memories.
So, lovebirds, take a stroll, ask the tough questions, and find that venue that screams “us.” Your dream spot is out there, waiting for your happily ever after.
Happy venue hunting!
